GEORGE WHITFIELD THE GREATEST EVANGELIST IN AMERICAN HISTORY, BY FAR, IN THIS MESSGE, MAKES IT PERFECTLY CLEAR TO ALL OF JOHN Q. PUBLIC OF AMERICA THAT IT IS OUR DUTY TO SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES, FOR THE SALVATION OF OUR SOULS DEPENDS UPON IT, AND YET PARADOXICALLY IT IS ONLY THE SPIRITUAL WHO CAN TRULLY READ THE BIBLE, FOR THE BIBLE IS SPIRITUAL, AND ONLY THE SPIRITUAL CAN READ THE SPIRITUAL. YES, OUR FASTFOOD FREEWILL THEOLOGINS CAN READ THE BIBLE AND GET A NATURAL MAN INTERPRETATION, BUT THE SPIRITUAL INTERPRETATION IS AS FOREIGN TO THEM AS SOMEONE SPEAKING TO THEM IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE UNKNOWN BY THEM. SO WHY SHOULD WE AS NATURAL MEN AMERICANS SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES IF THE TRUE INTERPRETATION IS INDISCERNIBLE TO US. WHY THEN? BUT BECAUSE THERE ARE SELF EVIDENT TRUTHS THAT WE AS NATURAL MEN AMERICANS CAN LAY AHOLD OF SELF EVIDENT TRUTHS THAT ARE INDISPUTABLE, LIKE ASKING OURSELVES WHETHER OR NOT WE ARE A LIAR. WE ARE, ARE WE NOT, AND IT IS ALSO INDISPUTABLE THAT LYING CAN BE ERADICATED FROM OUR HEART, AND THUS EXTRAPOLATING THE SAME IS TRUE FOR ENVY, JEALOUSY, COVETOUSNESS, THEFT, FORNICATION, ADULTERY, MURDER, ETC., AND YET IT IS A SELF EVIDENT TRUTH THAT HEAVEN US HOLY, SHOWING US WE ARE NOT FIT FOR HEAVEN WITH THE FOUNTAIN FROM WHICH EVIL FLOWS IN THIS WORLD COMING RIGHT OUT OF OUR OWN AMERICAN HEART, BUT THE 2ND ADAM COMES ALONG AND SAYS THAT HE IS HOLY FOR HE WAS SENT BY HIS FATHER TO DO WHAT THE 1ST ADAM DID NOT DO, AND WHAT WAS THAT BUT HE DID NOT KEEP HIS FATHERS COMMANDMENTS PERFECTLY AND THUS HIS FATHER GAVE HIM OVER TO SATAN ALONG WITH A NATURE IN LIKENESS TO SATAN WHO WAS THE FATHER OF LIES AND A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING. SO THE ONLY WAY AS NATURAL MAN AMERICANS HAVING THE FOUNTAIN FROM WHICH ALL EVIL FLOWS IN THIS WORLD IN OUR HEART ARE GOING TO HEAVEN IS BY THE OBEDIENCE OF ANOTHER MAN AS A GIFT TO US, AND WHO MIGHT THAT BE BUT THE 2ND ADAM WHO TOOK ON OUR SIN NATURE FORCING HIS FATHER TO SEND HIM TO HELL FOR US(HIS PASSIVE OBEDIENCE) AND NEVER SINNING HEAR ON EARTH THAT IS HE KEPT HIS FATHERS COMMANDS PERFECTLY FOR US( HIS ACTIVE OBEDIENCE) WHICH THE TWI OF THEM TOGETHER ARE CALLED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD WHICH BECOMES OUR TICKET INTO HEAVEN FOR WHEN WE HAVE FAITH IN THAT RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN SEES HIS SON’S PERFECT OBEDIENCE AS OUR OWN PERFECT OBEDIENCE BUT ALL WE CAN SEE IS THE FOUNTAIN FROM WHICH ALL EVIL FLOWS RIGHT IN OUR HEART AND THUS WE HUNGER AND THIRST AFTER THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD FOR OUR NEW CREATION DESIRES TO BE HOLY AND CAN’T BE FOR WE KNOW WE ARE POOR AND NEEDY AND THUS SPIRITUALLY RICH; WE KNOW WE ARE NAKED AND THUS SPIRITUALLY CLOTHED IN THE ROBE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS; WE KNOW WE ARE BLIND AND THUS HAVE SPIRITUAL EYES; WE KNOW AS BELIEVERS WE MUST COME AS BABES FOR JESUS HIDES HIS WISDOM FROM THOSE WHO ARE WISE IN THEIR OWN EYES. MT. 11:[24] But I (JESUS) say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.
[25] At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast HID these things from the WISE and prudent, and hast revealed them unto BABES.
[26] Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.
[27] All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
[28] Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
[29] Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
[30] For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. Rev. 3: [16] So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
[17] Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
